Elton John continues worldwide "The Diving Board" push

Elton John's 2014 itinerary begins with a mix of U.S. and Canadian shows, as well as South American gigs and some time touring Europe.

The iconic piano man kicks off the New Year schedule with a Feb. 1 performance in Youngstown, OH, before moving into Canada for a half-dozen dates. John will finish up the month in South America before returning stateside for a few U.S. concerts, along with a 16-date run of his Las Vegas residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace.

John is touring the world behind his latest studio release, "The Diving Board," which surfaced in late September. The effort, his 30th solo album, landed at No. 4 on The Billboard 200 and at No. 3 on the U.K. Albums chart.
